Fixture

It was a wet start to the game on Sunday, but luckily the sun did decide to make an appearance.

1^st Half

Oakdale started the game with some great passing and Oliver Tucker being unlucky to be tagged just short of the try line.  Next play Oakdale defended well to Senghenydd scoring. Oakdale’s’ ball and Iestyn Morgan made a great run but Senghenydd were tagging very well.  Ethan Patterson scored Oakdale’s first try, he had great support from other members of the team and glided over the try line.

Next play Senghenydd were quick off the mark to score their second try.  This followed with another great try from Ethan Patterson.

Kodi Mckenzie made a great run with Oakdale’s next ball but was stopped just before the line.  Senghenydd’s ball and some good tags from Oliver Gambold, Iestyn Morgan, Ben Thomas and Oliver Tucker. Senghenydd were on a good run though and made it to the line to score their third try.

Final ball of the half and Scott Thomas did some great weaving in and out of players and with Ethan Patterson they made some good ground.  Senghenydd had really strong defence and were tagging well which stopped the team getting through.

First half score: Oakdale 2, Senghenydd 3
